An overturned cement truck is ruining Thursday's commute as the accident occurred on northbound 101 just past the junction with eastbound I-80. The cement spilled off the elevated freeway and onto cars and the roadway of Bryant Street between 9th and 10th Streets.
As CBS SF reports, the trucked flopped over on a part of what used to be known as the Central Freeway at 3:30 p.m.
So, yes, that part of SoMa is a huge mess right now, as of 4:15 p.m. Take a look:

Traffic into parts of SF and around Bryant and 10th is likely to be effected for hours as this gets cleaned up.
Also, a few people are in for a surprise when they return to their parked cars.
